In addition, eating bananas at night has the following benefits:
1. Balanced nutrition, low calorie and chewy.
The calorie of a banana is 86 kcal (the edible part is about100g), which is much lower than that of a bowl of 250 kcal white rice. Coupled with the special taste, satiety lasts for a long time and it is not easy to get hungry. Moreover, bananas contain vitamin B6, vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, minerals and other ingredients, which can supplement the nutrients that the human body lacks.
2. Dietary fiber is powerful and can relieve constipation and lower abdomen.
Banana contains water-soluble dietary fiber and oligosaccharides, both of which can change the intestinal ecology, increase the number of probiotics and enhance immunity. Because it also contains water-insoluble dietary fiber, it will expand dozens of times in the intestine after eating, stimulate the intestinal wall to promote peristalsis, and have the effect of eliminating constipation.
3. Stimulate growth hormone, resist aging and burn fat.
The growth hormone secreted by our bodies has anti-aging and fat burning effects, and it is most vigorous when we fall asleep at night (midnight to early morning 1 1). Eating bananas at night, the "arginine" inside can activate growth hormone and help to lose weight. However, bananas contain high potassium content, so patients with kidney disease should consult a doctor first.
